PRICE: USD 1300.00

(List price NEW = USD 2200.00)

This is an excellent instrument available in very good condition. It is capable of professional performance in diverse situations.

• Very even sound across all registers

• Yellow brass bell

• Wide slide in excellent condition with one removable lead pipe

• Minor “gig marks” on bell (see photos)

• Pro MAX case with instrument stand and music/tablet compartments included

WHY I’M SELLING: I have a Shires .525 convertible rig that allows me to get very close to the sound and playing setup that is possible with the Q33.

Here’s what the Shires Company says:

The Q33 Small Bore trombone is a versatile instrument, ideally suited for jazz and commercial environments, as well as for lighter classical music. The 8-inch, two-piece, yellow brass bell with soldered bead gives the Q33 a crisp, clean sound with the power and projection for which S.E. Shires instruments are famed. The nickel lightweight handslide in .508 bore yields quick response, crisp articulations and a brilliant sound with an open low register and supported upper register. The Q33 is an excellent choice for the gigging professional and advancing student alike. QTY bell: 8-inch, two-piece, hand-hammered “QI” taper in lightweight yellow brass with soldered bead

QSY8 bell: 8-inch, two-piece, hand-hammered “QS” taper in medium weight yellow brass with soldered bead

Q08NLW handslide: .508-inch, light-weight nickel; nickel-silver wide crook

QSY tuning slide
